Thanks, Elliot. Very funny! :ROFLMAO: Isaibaic included this in his comments about it, "All episodes of The Good Life are on the BBC iplayer, with this particular episode called Tug Of The Forelock."

This website was on the back of my Christmas cards, so I thought I'd pass it along. https://www.davidjeremiah.org/whythenativity It includes a roughly 90-minute docudrama made in 2022 called "Why The Nativity?" In Q & A format, it tells about various aspects of the Nativity of Christ along...

From what I have read here and elsewhere, AB Electrolux's Luxomatic ZC90, introduced in Sweden in 1964, was the first in the industry to use the technology with its "Whistle Stop Signal". In the UK, the Z310 was the last to employ the feature; being produced from 1970 to 1973.

Here are my Electroluxes. I also have several unphotographed Eurekas, Hoovers, and Kirbys in storage.

You are welcome, Elliot.

Merry Christmas, Happy Hanukkah, Peace and Goodwill, and Happy New Year to each and all!

Thanks, Elliot, same to you and your loved ones!
